5.每天早晨朗读英语有助于提高你的口语能力。

The kids' friends have left for warmer places. A trip to the pool doesn't bring the same excitement as it did in June. And so many families have no choice but to go for a trip to the amusement park.Whether you're thinking of Six Flags, Sesame Place, Hersheypark or Dutch Wonderland, don't do it—you'll be sorry. Amusement parks—especially water parks—have never been more popular. More than 26 million people went to Six Flagslast year. These parks bring out the worst in kids and parents alike. What starts out as a special treat ends up in disappointment and tears.As soon as you get to the park, you pay a couple of hundred dollars for a family of four. Already, expectations are unrealistic as parents start to do the math. How many rides will I get for the money? The answer一at least in August 一is four.That's because of the lines. Time stops as you stand in line leading to even the least exciting ride. Over and over we count the number of people in front of us, wondering how many more rounds there'll be before our turn. Then there are the other parents— some of whom seem to think the lines are part of the game.At Dutch Wonderland last weekend, one father walked up to my kids and asked if they were in line. For five minutes, he had his daughter stand behind them. When I turned my head, he had her stand ahead of them. Then he did it to the kids next in line, too.By the end of the day, you see mothers and fathers buy their kids ice cream again and again to ease the influences of the heat, disappointment and anger.It's like they've forgotten—it was all the kids' idea in the first place.1.Why are parents helpless?A.Their kids are having little fun.B.They are not good at planning trips.C.Their kids depend on them too much.D.They are too busy to play with their kids.2.What does the author think of the money spent by parents?A.It is not worth it.B.It is good for the family.C.It wouldn't be so much in August.D.It is a waste for those poor at math.3.Why did the father ask the author's kids whether they were in line?A.He was a polite person.B.He couldn't find the line.C.He wanted his kid to cut in line.D.He wanted to teach them a lesson.4.What would be the best title for the text?A.Behave well, little kids!B.Mind your manners, parents!C.Make your choices carefullyD.Keep away from amusement parks三.完形填空At college, I am really in need of a computer.

AThe Hearst CastleHearst Castle is a park on the central California coast and a National Historic Landmark(地标).It was designed by Julia Morgan for William Randolph Hearst from1919to1947.In1957,the owner donated the fortune(大笔的钱)to the state of California.Since that time it has been a state historic park where its large collection of art and antiques(古董)are open for public tours.Despite its location far from any urban center,the site attracts roughly one million visitors per year.Guided Tours•Tour One is recommended for first time visitors.It now includes the movies,Hearst Castle and Building the Dream.•Tour Two gives visitors a closer look at the main house's upper floors,Mr. Hearst's private(私人的)suite,the libraries and the kitchen.•Tour Three looks at the Castle's North Wing,guest rooms and guest houses Casa Del Monte.•Tour Four includes the impressive gardens and grounds,the largest guesthouse(宾馆),the wine basement(地下室),and the Hidden Terrace.•The evening tour is a special tour that allows visitors to experience the Castle at night as one of the Hearst's own visitors might have.Ticket PricesHearst Castle accepts VISA,Master Card,American Express and Discover.

And it is fun.You can also rent an electric or paddle boat if you want.But since it was just me,I went on one of the biggest boats with other people.I spent another four hours wandering around the Summer Palace.But I didn't see all of it because it was getting dark.How I wish I could visit it again.4.Before setting off to the Summer Palace,the author.A.asked others about itB.didn't think it was largeC.didn't think it was smallD.learned something about it5.What does the underlined word“off-limits” in Paragraph2probably mean?A.Forbidden.B.Allowed.C.Charged.D.Limited.6.What do we know about the second highlight mentioned in the text?A.It sits on the top of a hill.B.It is the largest stage all over China.C.Operas are performed there at times.D.It was for royalty to watch performances.7.Which of the following correctly describes the author's tour?A.She spent4hours in the Summer Palace.B.She didn't enjoy the trip because it was too late.C.She took a boat by herself.D.She only toured parts of the Summer Palace.CMany of us know about Russia's Lake Baikal from our textbooks,or by listening to Chinese singer Li Jian's hit song,Lake Baikal(《贝加尔湖》).But over the past decade,the world's deepest freshwater lake has been in the spotlight for an extreme sport.Each March since2005,about150people from around the world sign up for the Baikal Ice Marathon.They come to explore the lake's breathtakingbeauty and challenge themselves in unpredictable(不可预测的)conditions.The26-mile(41.84-kilometer)journey starts on the lake's eastern shore.In March,the ice is a meter thick and iron-hard.Runners cross this frozen surface, finishing on the western side of the lake.Known as“the blue eye of Siberia”,Lake Baikal has exceptionally clear waters.This means its ice is almost perfectly transparent(透明的).“Seen from above,a runner on the ice looks as if he or she were jogging through space.” The New York Times noted.The landscape might be beautiful,but it's also harsh.Strong winds blast(猛吹)across the lake and frostbite(冻伤)can occur within half an hour.Runners say the cold climate is what draws them.They want to test(测试)their limits.“When you are in such an environment,you don't have cars around you, and you don't have the noise around.I think these extreme races allow you to be alone with nature.”Alicja Barahona,a64-year-old runner from the US,told ABC News.The location offers some strange and unique characteristics for this marathon. The finishing line is visible from the start,but the endless white offers no progress markers.The race also ends with little fanfare(隆重的欢迎).Tourists crowding the ice are mostly addicted to snapping selfies(自拍照)and just ignore the runners.For some runners,the absence(不存在)of spectators makes the race more challenging,because it's lonely.They must fight with themselves.“You are alone on Baikal.It is your race.You are alone with yourself.All you need todo is to defeat yourself.” Veronique Messina,a French runner,told The Telegraph.8.What can we know about the Baikal Ice Marathon from the article?A.It takes runners from the northern end to the southern end of the lake.B.It involves extreme weather and beautiful scenery.C.It attracts more and more participants each year.D.It is about26kilometers in length.9.How does the Baikal Ice Marathon differ from other marathons?A.Only men are allowed to run in this race.B.The runners are often distracted by tourists.C.There are many progress markers on the ice.D.The runners can see the finishing line from the start.10.What is the most challenging part of the race for Messina?A.The cold climate.B.The long distance.C.Noisy surroundings.D.Loneliness.11.How many reasons are listed to show the loneliness?A.5.B.4.C.3D.2.DSydney's Royal Botanic Gardens are to start a war on gray-headed flying foxes.These super bats(蝙蝠)have invaded(入侵)one of Australia's most famouspublic spaces.Officials have said that animals are destroying trees and have to be moved on.The unwanted guests at Sydney's Royal Botanic Gardens look like tiny foxes with wings.Officials have estimated there are about11,000of them living in the harbor-side park.After inspecting the damage to dozens of trees they now believe there are twice as many as previously thought.Branches have been breaking under the weight of these furry invaders and their droppings have been poisoning(毒害)plants.Help may well be at hand,however,in the shape of the ordinary garbage bin.The Gardens'director Dr.Tim Entwistle hopes the unpleasant sounds of crashing bin lids(垃圾箱盖)will agitate the flying foxes and force them to move on.“The way to disturb them is to use noises,so we've used the loud noises made by rubbish bins in the past.You can also use speakers as long as you move the noise around,and what we'll do is to have a series of noise,at the beginning and end of the day.What we've found in the past is that the flying foxes leave the Gardens and go somewhere else,” said Tim.The gray-headed flying fox is Australia's largest bat.It flies around at night using its eyes and a powerful sense of smell to search for fruit and flowers. Officials at the Roval Botanic Gardens in Sydney have said they're optimistic that the unwelcome colony can be uprooted(使离开家园).If and when the batsdo move to other parts of the city they will of course then become someone else's problem.12.Why do people want to get rid of the flying foxes?A.Because the gardens are important public places.B.Because they are polluting the city.C.Because many garbage bins have been damaged by them.D.Because they're threatening the survival of trees and other plants.13.What are people doing to get rid of the flying foxes?A.Shooting them.B.Making loud noises.C.Shaking the trees hard.D.Cutting some trees down.14.Which of the following can replace the underlined word“agitate” in Paragraph3?A.Excite.B.Kill.C.Disturb.D.Discourage.15.What does the writer imply form the last paragraph?A.The bats will still stay in the gardens.B.Some other areas will have to deal with the bats.C.The grey-headed flying fox often eats trees.D.The damage caused by the bats is serious.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
